Don't worry, you've been moved (by Clive I think)

January has been pretty poor, but to be expected. I keep speeds sensible for the most part but don't really skimp on the heating. This is in Scotland with a fair bit of pretty brutal hilly motorway/A road driving, so I'm still happy with that.

Total fuel cost for the month is just over £40, well under 3 pence a mile so not to be sniffed at.

My MG5 LR is in the garage but here is my wife's MG5 SR figure for January.
I don't think that I have posted up 3 before

I finally got my MG5 LR back after 5 weeks in the garage so had half a month in the warmer February weather.

It varied. In the south east it wasn't particularly cold, just wet. I generally don't use heating; this was the case on 2 return journeys to Bristol, ditto 2 journeys to Cambridge. 2 return journeys to Eastbourne were different; pouring rain and flooded roads made it necessary to have heating and AC on to keep the screen clear. Most of the time, cracking the window a little is enough to keep it clear. It does show the difference heating makes.

Heating set to cosy 22 C..

Interestingly SoH (95.39%) has gone slightly up this month?
